General catch up
ZL wondering what the connection is with the resource centre idea that should be turned into a protocol
ED and ELB have been catching up on M&E of IPs and are talking about how to set up MSC in a more participatory manner, with double layers of stories (at CG level and at site level) but without having one level filter the stories of the other level.
IP partner meeting
What to cover and how?
Why IPs (refer back to the AR program framework, and do a 1-2-4-all on experiences and expectations about IPs
Role of CG partners in this and junction between research and local IP:
Buzz about what they think these linkages are
Plenary consolidation
Present more about the framework and the set up etc.?
How to answer technical questions?
Plenary discussion
Participation modality in IPs:
Intro by ZL about min specs (the minimum that needs to happen) and possible types of interactions (big meetings, farmer field days, other visits etc.)
Do this per centre to find out how each centre will be participating and how to avoid gaps
Most Significant Change:
Introduce the idea of MSC and the need to collect CG partner level stories
